Linux monitoring - Using script component

vijay_noc

Hi ,

The below script is what i use to monitor the load average on linux servers.

Since the threshold value is not static I was forced to set the status as 0 and 1 in the below script. It resulted showing the chart data in 0 and 1

I would like to get the exact value in the custom chart since i was able to get that in the output as below :

In the below example it pulls the information from statistic load avg which resulting in showing graph as 0 to 1

Is there anyway i can get a custom chart which actually shows the value rendered from  the load average...

Output Result:

Message.Load_Average:Load Average is more: 24.13.

Statistic.Load_Average:1

---------

#!/bin/bash

load_average=`cat /proc/loadavg  | awk {'print $2'}`

cpu_cores=`cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep 'processor' | wc -l`

        if [[ "$load_average" -le "$cpu_cores" ]]; then
        status=0
        echo "Statistic.Load_Average: $status";
        echo "Message.Load_Average: Load Average is OK: $load_average";
        else
        status=1
        echo "Statistic.Load_Average: $status";
        echo "Message.Load_Average: Load Average is more: $load_average";
        fi;

exit 0;

I'd setup a multi-value output in this scenario. You can have up to 10 per script. And you can just hard set the status instead of referencing via a variable IMO. Have the threshold for Statisitc.Load_Status dictate the status of the component monitor.

#!/bin/bash

load_average=`cat /proc/loadavg  | awk {'print $2'}`

cpu_cores=`cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep 'processor' | wc -l`

if [[ "$load_average" -le "$cpu_cores" ]]; then

        echo "Statistic.Load_Status: 0";

        echo "Message.Load_Status: Load Average is OK: $load_average";

        echo "Statistic.Load_Average: $load_average"

        echo "Message.Load_Average: OK"

else

        echo "Statistic.Load_Status: 1";

        echo "Message.Load_Status: Load Average is more: $load_average";

        echo "Statistic.Load_Average: $load_average"

        echo "Message.Load_Average: Load Average ($load_average) is greater than CPU cores ($cpu_cores)"

fi;

exit 0;
